2010 F1 Season to kick-off this Sunday in Bahrain
Are you ready?
Yes, in case you didn’t know, the 2010 F1 season will kick off this weekend in Bahrain for the first time. And as far as the favorites for the 2010 title is concerned, well, let’s just say it’s everybody’s game with Michael Schumacher returning, Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton still trying to find their dominant selves and young kids like Sebastian Vettel trying to own everything five years early.
Yup, most pundits are claiming that Red Bull driver Sebastian Vettel could very well pose a threat to this year’s world championship. He led Red Bull to a fantastic showing last season and it’s understandable why everybody’s paying attention.
On the other hand, Vettel’s teammate, Mark Webber, isn’t 
fazed by all the attention his teammate has been receiving. He’s determined to have a strong campaign in 2010 and he’s not worried about Vettel one bit.
”A lot of people see my teammate, Sebastian Vettel, as my biggest rival this year,” Mark Webber said in an article in The Guardian. ”I have to say that there’s a lot of quick drivers out there and some pretty good teams. Seb is going to be a quick driver, no question about it. But I’m not going to bed thinking about him; I’m going to bed thinking about myself and doing the best job I can, to get the best results I can, for myself.”
”There’s many things to look forward to in this year’s Championship. It’s good for Red Bull Racing because we’ve got a lot of continuity in the team.”
”We’re still with Renault engines and, driver-wise, we’re very stable. Other teams have changed their driver pairings in some way or another and these small things can make a difference when Formula One is as competitive as it is now.”
”Seb and I have worked together, along with our engineers and the technicians from Renault, for some time and this will give us a good advantage. You have traits in engineers and drivers and it’s difficult to learn the system with such limited time.”
”Some drivers have only a handful of days to get ready for the first race and I think it’s going to be interesting when they’re under pressure. On race weekends you have to make big decisions at key moments and you don’t want to be learning about each other too much at times like that. Continuity is going to be a major strength for us, particularly early on.”
